Recycler - Pet scam

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
I have been looking for pets and most of the shelters were closed due to COVID-19. Then I found this website. I have contacted 5 sellers and chose this scammer. Actually all of 5 sellers said same story. They first ask my location instead of telling their location. And then, they chose any city that is far from me where it is too far for me to drive. Then they offer free delivery and asking for deposit. One of seller that I chose ask for $300, and I paid via Zelle. I thought Zelle is pretty secure, but I called Chase, and it cannot dispute because seller already accepted my pay. Anyway the seller said he will use pet delivery service and was expected to receive kittens. On delivery day, the delivery guy called and said there is problem with crate and I need to pay extra for ventilated crate for long ride. At that time I knew that it was scam. After I lost $300, I contacted 10 other sellers from same website, they all said same story. So far 25 sellers from recyclers are scammer!!! Unbelievable!! Never going to use this site again!!
